    That was a pretty good article. The one that always got me was the Pig status in FFIV. You'd go to talk to people in certain towns and all of a sudden the screen would go blank and you'd wake up as a pig....LOL

    Haha, I laughed at the "piss covered" one. I can imagine that would be a rather unpleasant status effect.

    The Pokerus one took me ages to find out what caused it on Pokemon Gold. It kind of had me worried about my guys haha.

    Ah, the stomach ache. Natural enemy of the mantra that I spent a shitload of money on just so that Serph could not learn it when I needed him to. Bastard.
